Happy Little Cyberman.

At some point I am going to have to draw a Dalek. People ask. They want a Weeping Angel, too. I don't like Daleks. And I have very mixed feelings about Weeping Angels. I have plans for Dave in his suit, post Vashta Nerada, I have plans for a Night Terror doll, I have plans for so many other bad guys, but I am totally doing it to put off the Daleks. I’ll get there, I am sure. It has to happen, but until it does, please enjoy a happy little Cyberman. It looks like he’s been to the fair and had a grand time. Well, in between the deleting, I mean.

Love.

One of my all time favorites. The character and the art. I'm kind of stupidly proud and pleased with this one so go ahead a cue the fall now...because well all know what comes before the fall...summer.

Ah, Hellboy...I love you so. (I love when I go to label a post and the word is already in the archive...how odd that I’ve mentioned Hellboy before. HA!)

Rogues.

More rogues for my gallery. The Joker and Miss P. Ivy...

Catty.

Big faces. That’s what seems to be going on here. Remind me to show the Harley Quinn and Joker faces sometime, ok. Until I do...

Bubble.

Here’s a peek at something I’ve been working on for San Diego Comic Con.

Although I enjoy the Star Wars and their movies, I don’t consider myself a huge fan. I think that’s really because I know some really, really huge fans and any sort of fandom I have looks teeny tiny in the shadow of their really, really huge fandoms. But I do love the (original three) movies...but I haven’t seen all of the others. I know, I know, but I am not completist in me and everyone says the others are not...great. So, you know...here. Silly art.

Rejects.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Some art just has to get rejected. Problem is, I kind of liked these.

Generally, I don’t like when a writer uses something like a quill pen or an old Corona typewriter on a business card unless, of course, they actually use them. But most writers these days use a computer. And let me just tell you, computers aren’t particularly attractive. So I did do one design with a fountain pen theme and it turned out to be my favorite. But it still got rejected.

Sigh. Sorry, little rejects. Maybe some other time.

Happy V.D.!

I really love Valentine’s Day. A lot of people complain about it being a “Hallmark holiday” or they bitch about the obligations they associate with the day, but I like pink, I like red, I like hearts, I like candy...heck, it’s actually SAINT Valentine’s Day, so...you know, it’s a holy day of sorts. We may not know who the real Valentine was or why he was so saintly (look it up, there are a few possibilites), it's still a sweet day to remember all kinds of love.

I’ve made a lot of Valentines over the years, but this (or a variation on it) has always been a favorite. Unfortunately, I am the only one who finds it funny...or finds worms on a Valentine funny, for that matter.

I also have a fondness for martinis...gin, please. Oh, Martini...Olive you.

And then there’s the sincere...

Happy Valentine’s Day, ya’ll!
